Feng Xiaotian faced Yu Tianheng and Osler, his wings like blades, slashing down ruthlessly.
"Clang! Clang!"
"Swoosh!"
"."
The wings collided with the blue-purple dragon scales, dragon claws, and leopard claws, emitting a series of friction sounds like blades clashing against armor.
Seeing Feng Xiaotian unleash his ultimate move, the others from Godwind Academy immediately shifted their focus, splitting off a portion of their wind blades and wind bullets to strike at Yu Tianheng and his two companions.
Although they had the support of Ning Rongrong, which increased their strength and speed by thirty percent and significantly boosted the combat prowess of Dugu Yan and Yu Tianheng, they were not covered in dragon scales from head to toe. Things like wind blades and air-piercing bullets could still cause them significant trouble.
They had to use their dragon claws to shatter or deflect the long-range wind blade and wind bullet attacks they couldn't dodge. While this didn't inflict any new injuries, breaking these attacks disrupted their movement and rhythm, leaving Yu Tianheng and Dugu Yan feeling incredibly frustrated.
Because Osler's strength was slightly inferior, he didn't receive much "attention" from the rest of the Godwind team. However, his speed was already no match for Feng Xiaotian, and his strength was even further behind; every time he charged at Feng Xiaotian, he was slashed away.
For a moment, Feng Xiaotian was truly able to move with ease amidst the trio's disjointed attack rhythm. He slashed at Yu Tianheng, then at Osler; aside from not daring to touch Dugu Yan, the other two were constantly on the receiving end of his blows. Moreover, they felt that Feng Xiaotian's wing blades were becoming heavier with each strike.
This was the Gale Demon Wolf Thirty-Six Consecutive Slashes. As long as the combo wasn't broken, he could build up power until the thirty-sixth slash, reaching a level of destructive force comparable to a ten-thousand-year spirit skill!
Ning Fengzhi, Chen Xin, and Dugu Bo watched the consecutive slashes Feng Xiaotian was using, sighing in their hearts at his talent. A technique that had taken the Clear Sky Sect many years to perfect had been grasped by this young man at such an age; his natural aptitude was truly remarkable!
And as Yun Ming watched this combo, he seemed to understand the doubts he had held earlier!
The battle between the groups continued without pause.
Seeing Yu Tianheng and the others falling into a disadvantage, Yu Feng immediately activated his first spirit skill, Wing Blade. The front edges of his wings became as sharp as blades as he charged toward the Godwind Flight Squad in the sky.
However, when it came to aerial combat, Yu Feng was a novice compared to these experts from Godwind Academy.
Among the Godwind Six-Member Group, there were those specifically tasked with handling aerial opponents. As Yu Feng approached, he was greeted by two aerial melee spirit masters; he gained nothing but a beating, and he didn't even manage to disrupt the opponents' release of long-range attacks.
However, Yu Feng was not entirely useless. With two members occupied, the Godwind flight formation had a gap. Just as wild geese need to fly in a "V" formation to save energy, it didn't take long for the Godwind team's flight speed to begin slowing down, and their energy consumption began to increase.
Even though the Godwind student whose martial soul was the wind element had long since used his second spirit skill, "Wind Rise," to regulate the surrounding airflow to assist their flight, it was inevitable that the flight speed of the four would slow down. Coupled with their constant long-range suppression of the others, their stamina and soul power soon began to wane, and the frequency of their long-range attacks started to drop.
However, Feng Xiaotian's wing slashes had already stacked to the thirtieth strike, and the power was considerable.
Osler's hands were already bloodied and mangled from receiving the wing blades, with bone faintly visible. Yu Tianheng had also activated his third spirit skill as early as Feng Xiaotian's twentieth slash.
Yu Tianheng's third spirit skill, "Thunder Fury," was a self-buffing skill. After activation, he entered a berserk state for a certain period, increasing his lightning power by one hundred percent and his soul power by fifty percent. If the skill was not actively stopped, it would continue until his soul power was exhausted.
His right arm's dragon claw now had shattered scales, and blood was streaming down.
"Huff, huff~"
Yu Tianheng panted heavily after blocking another slash. Just then, Dugu Yan came to his side and whispered.
"Tianheng, do you feel that the frequency of the wind blade and wind bullet attacks has slowed down?!!"
Hearing Dugu Yan's reminder, Yu Tianheng realized it too. He had been so dazed by Feng Xiaotian's slashes that he hadn't had time to think about it. To make matters worse, the Shi Family Brothers on Ning Rongrong's side shouted out.
"Boss, Yan-jie, Rongrong's soul power is almost exhausted!"
Before Yu Tianheng and the others could speak, Feng Xiaotian finished adjusting his angle. With a large turn in the air, his right wing slashed down from behind Dugu Yan.
Seeing this, Yu Tianheng hurriedly pushed Dugu Yan aside and took the slash head-on with his right arm.
"Ah!!!"
Yu Tianheng let out a miserable cry. This slash was too heavy; the dragon scales at the point of impact were completely shattered, cutting all the way to the bone.
Seeing her boyfriend suffer such a heavy injury, Dugu Yan wanted to kill Feng Xiaotian, but she couldn't reach him!
Just as Dugu Yan was overcome with rage, Yu Tianheng said to her.
"Yan-yan, while Rongrong's support effect is still active, I will find an opportunity to restrict him, and then you use your fourth spirit skill to decide the outcome in one blow!"
Hearing her boyfriend say this, Dugu Yan nodded in agreement. As long as she could land a hit on Feng Xiaotian, everything else would be easy!
"Swoosh!" x3
Three more slashes landed, and Yu Tianheng's injuries worsened. The next strike would be the thirty-fifth slash. But just as Feng Xiaotian was about to ascend, Yu Tianheng, who had stumbled from the previous two slashes, took advantage of the momentum to grab a handful of dirt in his left hand and threw it directly at Feng Xiaotian. Caught off guard, Feng Xiaotian lost his line of sight.
Yu Tianheng had taken so many slashes from Feng Xiaotian that, although he didn't fully understand the principle, he had gained some insight. After every slash, Feng Xiaotian would fly along a roughly fixed trajectory, only making micro-adjustments based on Yu Tianheng's next move.
The force behind Feng Xiaotian's current strikes was too heavy; he had to continue moving along the trajectory of his accumulated power. Losing his vision wouldn't cause his combo to fail, but because he couldn't see his opponent's movements, he couldn't make those micro-adjustments. This turned Feng Xiaotian from a moving target into a relatively stationary one.
"Yan-yan, now!"
Dugu Yan also saw the opportunity; this time, Feng Xiaotian couldn't dodge! Under Dugu Yan's feet, her first, second, and fourth spirit rings all lit up as she unleashed her full-power strike.
Dugu Yan's new first spirit skill, "Hellish Resentment Poison," had the effect of increasing the potency of her poison.
Dugu Yan's new second spirit skill, "Poison Dragon's Wrath," was a buff-type spirit skill that greatly enhanced her offensive and defensive capabilities while amplifying all her other spirit skills.
Dugu Yan's original spirit skill path had been quite strange, but the changes following her martial soul evolution had steered her peculiar skills toward a high-attack direction. Plus, since she was now a dragon rather than a snake, a high-attack path was indeed more suitable. It was under Yun Ming's suggestion that she had obtained this fourth spirit skill.
Dugu Yan's fourth spirit skill, "Hell Dragon Claw," was a skill similar to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon's "Thunder Dragon Claw." It could permanently enhance the power of her strikes and kicks, and could be used for long-range single-target attacks, though its power was far greater.
With the amplification of her first and second spirit skills, Dugu Yan's aura surged. The mark on her forehead turned scarlet, and the purple poison gas surrounding her body slowly shifted toward a purplish-red.
After the fourth spirit skill was activated, the soul power on Dugu Yan's right hand condensed into a scarlet, transparent glove that looked nearly tangible. If one listened closely, they could faintly hear the sound of a resentful dragon's roar.
"Captain!"
"Boss!"
The sudden turn of events caused the other members of the Shenfeng Team to cry out in alarm; they abandoned their suppression of the others and lunged toward Feng Xiaotian, attempting to block the sneak attack from Dugu Yan and Yu Tianheng.
The Shi Family Brothers, who had been huddled in defense for the entire battle, saw that the moment had arrived. With a tacit roar, the two brothers threw their Tortoise Shell Shields directly in the direction of Dugu Yan.
The rest of the Shenfeng Team saw the shields being used like frisbees and, seeing them fly so far off-target, didn't even bother to look as they continued to close in on Dugu Yan. However, by doing so, they were also approaching the tortoise shells. Seeing this, the Shi Family Brothers curled their lips into a smirk and activated their Third Soul Rings.
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
The two men's Tortoise Shell Shields shattered abruptly. Each shield broke into sixteen pieces, totaling thirty-two fragments that shot out in an indiscriminate attack.
The Shi Family Brothers' Third Soul Skill, Bursting Shield Armor, transformed a pair of tortoise shells into sixteen fragments each. These fragments were not only extremely heavy but also possessed immense cutting power.
The sudden explosion caused varying degrees of injury to the members of the Shenfeng Team who were approaching Dugu Yan. Three of the heavily wounded immediately lost their ability to fight, and while three others were only lightly injured, Osler and Yu Feng were able to intercept them. Although those two were in a sorry state themselves, they were still capable of holding them off. As for the two shell fragments flying toward Dugu Yan, they were intercepted by Yu Tianheng.
Dugu Yan finished gathering her strength, locked onto Feng Xiaotian's landing spot, and let out a sharp cry.
"Feng Xiaotian, go to hell!!!"
She then swiped her claw, the energy of the Dragon Claws in her hand transforming into a crimson Giant Dragon about ten meters long, which flew toward Feng Xiaotian.
"Roar!"
A silent dragon roar echoed in everyone's hearts. Although Feng Xiaotian couldn't see it, he could feel the terrifying Soul Power fluctuations rushing toward him. Dodging was definitely out of the question, so...
He would just take it head-on! Let's see who gets the last laugh!!!
"Gale Demon Wolf Thirty-Fifth Slash!"
Feng Xiaotian adjusted his angle, the cyan light on his hands flaring brightly as he slashed directly at Dugu Yan's Hell Poison Dragon.
"Slash!!!"
The Poison Dragon claw collided with the Cyan Wing Blade. Crimson and deep cyan light erupted, engulfing the entire Soul Fight Stage. The light was blinding, impossible to look at directly. The other participants couldn't see a thing.
"Boom!!!"
The two forces clashed, emitting a deafening explosion before finally falling silent and vanishing into the dust!
Ning Fengzhi, Qian Renxue, and Dugu Bo—these three big shots—had impure motives for watching the soul fight, but being able to witness such a brilliant team battle was an unexpected joy; they hadn't come in vain!
Yun Ming's ears twitched. The result was already clear, and he let out a soft sigh.
